Hello,
The car does have the Sport and Cold Weather packages. It also has the Logic 7 system too.
The pictures off the original link you posted is a non-sport model.

Hello,

http://www.lifequalitybmw.com/Preowned-Inv...toryId=18838461

This is the car that I was looking at getting. It's a CPO. They want $32,600 for it. I applied for the financing and was approved at 4.9% for 72 months with the first two payments covered.

They also offered an extended maintenance plan for $1995. They offered $6,500 as trade in on my car. My current car has 109K on it. It's a 2000 328Ci.

When it's all said and done, I'll be looking at a $450/mo car payment.

I've got the weekend to think about it. What do you guys think? Is there something I should look out for with the 530? When I got my 328Ci, I didn't know about the subframe or the tranny problems? Are there any problems with the 2004 5 series?

I'm also scanning through these forums (and many others) this weekend so I could make a more informed decision. Any help that can be provided would be most certainly appreciated.

Thanks,
Henry


I recently picked up a 2004 530i 6spd for $23,500 with 58k miles. It has a full maintenance package till 100k miles, but not a CPO.

Comes with the following packages
Premium, Winter, Smokers, and Xenonx.

That is a great price. I saw several 530's and 545's at a much lower price than mine but the CPO warranty was very important for me. I purchased a 328 last year for a great price but with no warranty and I spent so much money on it that I promised that I would never get another BMW unless it was under warranty.

I probably could have saved around $6k-$7k on EBay if I didn't want the CPO warranty. I'm hoping it's worth it.
